Abstract
NW.-SE. stream alignment in western South Dakota coincides with the prevailing wind direction. This alignment appears to be due to the periodic accumulation of locally derived eolian sediments in drains which are not aligned. Because of this deposition, unaligned drains are not elongated by water erosion as rapidly as those which are aligned. Eolian sediment can be derived locally and deposited when the prairie vegetation is destroyed by fire or weakened by drought.
